Artemis Accords
As part of NASA's Artemis program to land the next man and the first woman on the Moon, NASA introduced the Artemis Accords. The CSA has worked closely with NASA and other space agencies on the Artemis Accords, a set of principles designed to guide safe and sustainable exploration, science, and commercial activities in deep space, including on the Moon and other celestial bodies. The Accords align with existing obligations under the Outer Space Treaty.
In , Canada signed the Artemis Accords, an important first step towards establishing a framework for future space exploration activities, which complements our existing efforts in Moon exploration. Consultations with Canadians will help the Government further solidify this framework and shape the future of international space exploration.
"The Artemis Accords are an important achievement for safe and sustainable space exploration, but more work is needed to further solidify the framework for deep-space exploration activities, both nationally and internationally."
The Government of Canada will continue working with international partners and within the UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space to further develop the international framework. Canada recognizes the exciting opportunities presented by emerging exploration, science, and commercial space activities. The Government of Canada wants to hear from you. We invite you to share your ideas, your experiences, and your comments throughout this consultation process.
